Other Client crash in PB

Windows 11
Ran my first PB last week, crashed in phase 4 of statues. Don't have the logs but here is the screenshot of the error from that run.

The screen turned black for a bit before closing. This error message followed the crash.



This week was attempt #2 and crashed in phase 5 of statues. Same thing as last week - screen turned black for a bit before closing. Here is the error message.

Hey, sorry just saw your message. Hopefully you resolved it by now but in case you haven't, I'll share what worked for me.
It is very cliche but the only answer I've found is a fresh install of Windows (your mileage may vary).

I freshly installed both Windows 10 and 11 multiple times, but I kept experiencing the crash even after the first few installs. Here's what I did the first few times.
After installing Windows, I would "Check for Updates" in the operating system to ensure I have all the necessary drivers, get whatever driver/updates I need for my GPU, and then installed ML.
Then I would install Valorant because that's the other game I play, and then I would also change system locale to Korean because I liked to type/read Korean in ML.

After realizing this hasn't been working, I realized I probably should remove any unnecessary steps after the Windows installation. I also looked at crash logs and issues in our neighbor private servers' forums and saw what problems they were causing and how they resolved it.

Long story short, what worked for me are the following:
- fresh install of Windows 10, do the required/necessary updates for Windows and GPU
- install ML
- leave system locale as the default (don't change because this allegedly caused some crashes in other servers)
- start task manager and remove/end all "Runtime broker" listed in there (this is a suggestion someone told me about, not sure if it actually helps but I still do it before PB)
